Introduction. In anticipation of the launch of a new national project “Personnel” in 2025, the need for innovative mechanisms to increase the competitiveness of the Russian labor market is intensifying. The universally recognized form of combating the personnel deficit in the global economy is the attraction of migrant labor.

Materials and methods. The analysis of regulatory legal acts made it possible to consider the specifics of state regulation of the employment of foreign citizens in the Russian Federation by providing “patents” and “work permits.” In the situation of closed statistical data on the part of the Main Directorate for Migration of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation, for an adequate assessment of modern migration trends, the article uses data provided by regional employment services.

Results. The need to attract personnel to the Russian labor market was recorded: the working-age population in Russia in 2023 decreased by more than 200 thousand people by 2017. For employers, the employment of foreign workers working under the patent remains attractive due to the lack of additional bureaucratic burden. An analysis of the distribution of quotas for the attraction and use of foreign workers by types of economic activity and countries of attraction is presented. In 2024, an increase in the use of labor by foreign workers from countries that were previously practically absent in the Russian labor market was recorded: Sri Lanka, Pakistan, Nepal, Myanmar, Laos.

Growth points in the regulation of external labor migration related to the growing role of the state as a reliable intermediary for attracting labor migrants by the employer were highlighted. For organizations in search of new sources of attracting foreign labor, it is important to use officially established diplomatic channels; action according to an algorithm developed by the authorities. For regions with an acute shortage of personnel, the development of the institution of organized recruitment of foreign workers seems promising. It is important to expand the information representation of the needs of the Russian labor market on the Internet for foreign audiences.

Discussion. To understand the change in migration flows, the regional specifics of the placement of enterprises, established stable foreign economic relations, which determines the attraction of foreign citizens to the regional labor market, need further research.

The article is devoted to the study of adaptive behavior mechanisms in the professional activity of social work experts. The ongoing processes of transformation of requirements for the professional activity of social work experts update the need to study this professional group. Social work as a profession is quite young and is in progress, which is accompanied by vague ideas about this area; polyfunctionalism, which is based on combining the functions of a psychologist, lawyer, social therapist, and teacher, places high demands on the professionally important qualities of the expert and is endowed with prerequisites for the development of professional stresses. The article analyzes the causes of professional stress and the mechanisms of protective and coping behavior. The results of the study of preferred strategies of the experts’ behavior are presented, and the dependence of the use of coping strategies on professional experience and belonging to a professional group is revealed. It is established that the process of formation and development of a professional group of social work experts is accompanied by professional deformation of its representatives. But the use of adaptive behavior strategies will contribute to the successful coping of social work experts with the deforming moments of their professional activity.
